Part of your responsibilities will be planning and executing long term business and tech strategies, further you will be representing the technical area in a Business Cluster, acting as an influencer and change driver to each initiative.

Main responsibilities:

  • You will be the line manager for 2 teams doing 1o1s, dev talks, performance reviews, hiring, holidays, onboardings and other personnel actions. All the engineers in your teams will be your reports.

  • Your teams will be preferably inside the same cluster (cluster is a team agrupation sharing business goals).

  • You will be autonomous to manage the cluster teams composition, aligned with the cluster team and the Engineering Director and other EMs when needed.

  • Acting as a Servant Leader and using our SST framework you will make your teams to be high performant and reach high levels of autonomy and self-sufficiency  (solving conflicts, managing dependencies, achieving business goals, improving continuously, increasing performance, etc.)

  • You will be accountable for the projects where your teams are involved even when the scope is broader than only tech and requires collaboration with other stakeholders. You will need to help with project coordination and provide guidance from the tech perspective, involving the right people at the right time, but not acting as tech expert or consultant to all technical aspects. In some projects that accountability would be shared with other key players, like EMs of other involved teams, Product Managers or Project Managers.

  • Agile best practices fostering and adoption inside teams will be part of your accountability.

  • As Engineering Manager (EM) you may be a member of the cluster team, being responsible for aligning business needs with the tech strategy participating in OKRs and cluster roadmap discussions.

  • You will foster a feedback culture based on Radical Candor creating a psychologically safe environment.

  • As EM, you will shape and protect Adevinta's culture using day by day communications, team dynamics, sharing and asking for feedback and being a role model in our behaviors.

  • You will not make deep technical decisions, we don’t expect you to be the strongest technician. Those decisions will be made by senior individual contributors instead, but you will need to be up to date with the industry technical standards.

Desired skills:

  • People management: Assertiveness, empathy, fairness, honesty, humbleness and “win for team, fail for the manager” mindset.

  • Extensive written and oral communication.

  • Your well-being is our priority. We cover fully for your medical insurance and we allow family members to be added to the policy for a discounted price.

  • At the Barcelona office, you can enjoy sessions of 1 hour of physiotherapy

  • Do you like going to the gym? We sponsor 70% of the monthly fee of your chosen centre/ studio and we have agreements with both Andjoy and McFit for discounted membership prices.
